I watched 3 cars in a line go through a red light on a traffic island earlier, then some dick in a 1 series beemer nearly loose it on the ringroad due to speed, next to a mini who also nealry collided with the beemer due to him having the interior light on looking for somthing in the glove box, and the guy behind me was not even looking at the road as he was texting!!
Add the bad weather to that sort of driving and there will be plenty of bumps sadly!!

its suprisingly easy to roll a car. slide it sidways into the curb or even a slight pot hole and it can be enough to tip it over.

Everyone is different to a degree I guess, but I can't understand why so many people appear to struggle as much as they do.
Tailgating is not acceptable in any road conditions imo, nevermind snow and ice. However no suprise with the amount of wankers on the roads nowadays tbh.

I've been to jano's in my turbo cab today, well went monday came back today worst rd was the A50 heading to stoke. shitty concrete rd, icy, bad snow shower, people tailgating, hgv's still doing 60mph and tailgating cars esp the twat In a X3 who had snow all over all windows except windscreen and a massive hgv 2metre from his rearbumper on the inside lane.
I could feel my car sliding on the rd, was happy to get off that rd, but all in all I've covered 530 miles in 30 hours without issues

GUYS I'VE JUST REMEMBERED WHAT I DID LAST YEAR TO STOP TAIL GAITERS!
tweaked the hand brake a little and slide the back end out (obviously on a clear flat bit of road and not at speed), they soon get the message and either back off or fuck off down another road
